In an embodiment, the radius of curvature of the sidewall 232 is greater than the thickness of the layer 128 or the second dielectric layer 2Q4. Similarly, the trenches 24 are also interfaced with the vias to define the conditions defined by the sidewalls. Although the curvature of the difficult attack in Fig. 2 is substantially the same as the curvature of the side wall 237, it may be different. The interconnect conductors of the trench and via structure 25G can be various full eyebrows. The inner joint (10) = preferably copper. Conductor 245 is formed in the _ and via windows.
